Future Scala Futures

In this session, Viktor Klang will look at how Futures can be used in for-comprehensions, how to gracefully handle failure, how to avoid blocking operations and get a glimpse into the implementation. We'll get our hands dirty and learn by examples, mixed with presentation-style explaining of how things fit together.
